Taylor Swift

One Direction has broken their silence about Taylor Swift and her apparent diss of former love Harry Styles during her acceptance speech for Best Female Video at the MTV VMAs on Sunday.

“I also want to thank the person who inspired this song, who knows exactly who he is, because now I got one of these,” Swift said of her award she picked up for “I Knew You Were Trouble.”
Well, the boys responded to the major shade in the most charming way possible. “When she said those things about Niall [Horan], we were very, very pissed off,” Liam Payne joked to New York magazine.

“I was so upset that she would go writing songs about me after all we’ve been through,” Horan joked back. Then Payne chimed in with: “Hashtag get over it.”

Styles and Swift split last January, but were both photographed together at the VMAs after-party.
